My Internship Experience
I interned with T-Mobile over the summer and into the fall season. This experience has taught me so much about the marketing field and how the workplace, or zoom, takes place. It was cool to see what I have learned in class come to life. What I have learned most from this internship is how marketing meetings work and what topics are discussed. For example, I observed many meetings where the team talked about the T-Mobile marketing trucks and how they were doing. This ranged anywhere from budgets, where the trucks would be located, and who was assigned to which…

Creativity and Sustainability
During this fall semester of 2021, I have interned for Grid Magazine, a Philadelphia-based magazine that focuses on sustainability at a local level. Because I am an Advertising major with an Art Direction concentration, I was brought on board as a Design Marketer. I was given creative duties such as creating layouts for the magazine and cover pages that would then go to print, designing social posts and e-blasts to reach the Grid following online, redesigning old documents to bring new life to them (such as an advertising price sheet, for example), as well as non-design related duties such as…

Forever a Student
Hi, everyone! My name is Deraj Pugh and I am a senior Advertising student with a concentration in Account Management. I’m currently an Influencer Marketing intern at HSN. I learned a lot and had plenty of opportunities to improve my skills in communication, time management, multi-tasking, and organization. I also learned the importance of networking and building relationships. All of these skills are very important and transferrable to almost any role in any industry. Something that really stood out to me as well was how different influencer marketing programs can be from company to company and in different industries. Over…
Getting the most out of a virtual internship
To quote the most boring version of a Jerry Seinfield stand-up, “What’s the deal with virtual internships?” Like everything this past year there was the good, the bad, and the lonely. The good: I interned this summer at Spark Foundry, a media marketing agency based in New York City. I was based in Philadelphia, PA; Providence, Rhode Island; and Estero, Florida. If this internship was totally in-person I wouldn’t have been able to accept it and probably never would have thought to apply for it. Everyone I worked with had been working virtually since last March, so they were used…
